Free-stab housing, herringbone
milking parlors, sites, and feed ,
lots are component partS . of a
system that can cut labor • require-
' by :d) percent over Conventional
tie-stall setups, in Mich-
igan dud NeW York. State-% re-
searA verifies this reduction,
Climatic conditions in these neig-
houring areas are very Similar to
Our own, and many fanners there
are utlizing such a system, Ksix-
Month study in New 'York State
on 17 farms, 'varying in herd sire
from 41 to 200 .cows, indicated an
average of 4'3 hours chore time pet'
cow per year, Many Ontario
dairymen spend 75 to 1.00 'hours
with each animal a year,
Since about 55 percent of the
chore time is spoilt milking, the
parlor type was heavily emptha.
sired at the Cattle Day, Ilierring-
bone and in-line designs are most
common, A double-four herring,
bone proved to he the most effic-
ient for medium-sized herds,
according to research done by Mr.
MacLachlan, :One man can handle,
38 cows per hour, where the same
person can milk only 33 in a
double two-in-line. system., For
large herds, (100 cows or more),
a double-eight herringbone parlOr
could well be utilized, Walking
distance during milking cliores
could be as much as 50 to 150
percent more hi itt-litre parlors
than in the hecringlions design,
